Batman: Arkham City

[tymon]

Got both Robin and Nightwing today and they're both fantastic (particularly Robin). Can't wait for the Batman skins on the sixth.

I was up til like 3 am playing this and I had approx. 6.89 orgasms...

seriously though, great game.

[tymon]

I gotta say, Robin and Nightwing's combat are both more fun Batman's - not as brutal and not as many gadgets to use, but they're a lot faster and Robin's staff is epic.

Is it sad that I spent almost an hour last night hiding up on a ledge and throwing the remote controlled batarang at a group of thugs?

Speaking of, why does that not kill people? The thing looks sharp enough to slice through skin like butter and yet all it does is make them fall over. Even on full boost.

If you did it in real life while dressed up as Batman and were throwing Nerf Batarangs at people walking by, then yes, that is sad.

Considering the sheer scope of this game, and the amount things there are to do, yeah..it kind of is.

NOTE: NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY


A friend of mine actually had a pretty interesting idea for an online mode for Arkham City. One guy gets to be Batman, and everyone else is a thug. The thugs spend the entire time trying not to be wasted by the guy playing Batman, and trying to take down Batman.

THAT"S NOT ALL FOLKS!
Batman Arkham City will be releasing a Game Of The Year Edition will be released on May 29th, featuring all of the downloadable content packs (Catwoman, Nightwing, Robin), including the Skin Add Ons and the downloadable Challenge Maps. Harley Quinn's Revenge will also be in the GOTYE with TWO HOURS of Gameplay, switching between Batman and Robin trying to figure out Harley's plan.

Oh my god. Oh my God ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod.

One of the things I wanted to do in Arkham City after the Joker died was go find Harley and give her a hug. No Shit, and I would do it in real life too. (Though, if Harley Quinn was mourning the Joker in real life, I'd be dead...)

New trailer for Harley Quinn's Revenge!

[Living Corpse]

This just makes me wish Mortal Kombat had a story DLC extension or maybe a story mode DLC where you play the bad guys (come on, the heroes couldn't have won EVERY fight, sometimes evil wins and even Lu Kang takes his lumps).

[SoleMan]

I've got a question: My game got a corrupt save, so I would have to open up a whole new file to play it in. Would it just play right off the bat (Ha-bat) or would I have to playthrough the whole game again?

[Goji]

If it's corrupt, you're shit outta luck. You will have to start over.

[Grayshot954]

Yeah, sorry to hear dude. I had the same problem a few years ago. I was literally on the last FIVE minutes of a game and a character glicted in such a fashion I couldn't end it. She literally started the level with NO health and after multitple retries, the game corrupted. But at least its not bad considering you have to replay one of the best games of the year. I replayed Pirates at Worlds End. That my friend, even though it was many years ago, was very very bad.

Well, it sucks because I was blasting through New Game plus and was nearly done with it (Got up to the part before you enter Wonder Tower) and then it conked out. I guess I could just blast through on easy; I'm playing Metal Gear Solid right now, so it'll probably take up a chunk of time, and I might play Mass Effect 3 after that. I could just save my money on watch it on youtube, but it kind of loses something in the video, y'know?

Also, I kind of liked Pirates 3. It...y'know...had things that didn't completely...okay, it blew, but I almost got a perfect gamer score. (There's jus that DAMN hundred-souls thing...)
